In the high frequency range Stereokonzept uses Scan-Speak's ring radiator, that in recent years has been utilised more and more amongst high end manufacturers, also featuring a motor with neodymium magnet. The light-weight textile diaphragm blasts out frequencies beyond 30khz. Stereokonzept are not satisfied buying  specially selected drivers, one has to provide such things with optimal surroundings. The ring radiator gets its signal from a crossover that is decoupled from the tweeter housing using suspension springs. Just as is the case with the filters for the bass midrange driver, the finest components are sourced from the house of Mundorf, such as silver/gold capacitors and copper voice coils. Knowing the value of the parts is however unimportant, a demonstration of this is the choice to encase the tweeter crossover. The crossover components for the bass midrange driver are microphonically insulated in a decoupled module in the lower housing. The components, always selected for their combination of performance in both measurement tests and extensive listening sessions are freely wired together.

Johannes Rickert confines himself however not only to the best drivers and extremely high-quality condensators and coils, their arrangement is just as important. Very special attention is devoted to the mechanics of the speaker, beginning with the housing material. The walls of the unit consist of a sandwich of 12 millimetre Corian (a DuPont developed acrylic-based solid surface) and 15 or 18 millimetre birch plywood. For increased stability the housing has a granite slab embedded in its base – no wonder then, that its weight is usually underestimated. Despite their modest measurements, each speaker weighs 54 kg.

The concept of binding to the floor is also very independent, beginning with a very large central spike. By contrast, four threaded rods in the jib exist simply to provide a steadfast position and are rounded at their ends to prevent the carpet they are resting on from being penetrated. Metalwork seems to be a favourite hobby of the Stereokonzept constructor actually, at first glance you don't notice any brand on the speaker, but closer inspection reveals the name engraved subtly on the front jib – a real love for detail! The brand name and model are also once more engraved in the powder dipped stainless steel plate on the rear, which fulfills two functions: firstly it draws our attention to the finely turned tapering round-ended aluminium bass reflex tube and secondly it acts as a counter-bearing bracing for the midrange driver. This arrangement provides considerable dampening for the magnets and the basket – that the plate is attached to the baffle via a stainless steel ring recessed in the housing seems not to be enough for these developers.

The base of the tweeter housing consists of a milled aluminium plate that like certain other metal parts in the speaker, is muffled using corkboard. Four rings of specially stiffened foam make contact between the tweeter module and the rest of the housing and two screws make sure it stays in position. When one considers the multitude of such subtle construction details, those that don't make the finishing of the Model 3.0 more rational, the quality of the materials utilised and how they're processed, it is easy to imagine that Stereokonzept have not calculated generously, even if the price (in absolute terms) isn't quite what on might call “low”.
